In a handful of cases, reporters were deported, or felt they were given little choice but to leave the country immediately.

Other international journalists continue to be accredited to report from South Sudan, and a handful of these are based in Juba.

Over the past six months, the FCAEA has made efforts to engage the senior leadership of relevant agencies in the Government of South Sudan on the issue, as well as engage donors, humanitarian organisations and other stakeholders.

In April, the FCAEA wrote to South Sudan’s Media Authority asking them to provide detailed written guidelines for the accreditation of foreign media, the criteria for acceptance or rejection, and the process for appeal. The Media Authority has not responded to this enquiry.

The blocking of these international journalists has coincided with a deterioration in security in the country, as well as the declaration of famine and the largest refugee crisis in Africa, all issues of global concern.

The FCAEA urges the international community to continue prioritising media freedom and access in South Sudan – for international journalists and South Sudanese colleagues, many of whom face horrifying work conditions and threats to their security.

Note to press: The FCAEA is the largest foreign correspondents’ association in Africa, representing the interests of some 500 journalists and media professionals based in East Africa and beyond. It is headquartered in Nairobi and registered under Kenyan law.
